CNBC is a joke.. Nothing but a bunch of flash and graphics, and no substance. The most personality on there is Cramer and he just makes a fool out of himself.

Bloomberg's format is just too newsy and boring.


Fox News Saturday Morning is head and shoulders above all of them. They put on a great show, but I don't know if they can maintain that energy for 7-days a week.

They easily have the best characters/personalities in Business News.

I am amazed at Cramer's popularity. He consistently buries his portfolio-followers with terrible trades, averaging down, and get treated as a success?

His new format is pretty much un-checked ego unleashed. It reminds me of MTV in the mental value of the content.

I miss the days when Joe Kernan was allowed to actually talk about small cap story stocks.

Cramer did have a show on Fox News in 2000. There was a contract dispute, as well as conflict of interest issues, I believe. He left after a few months with a good amount of acrimony.

Cramer is the "Matt Drudge" of business TV: creepy, eccentric, unreliable, bizarre.
